Featured Project: ring-u

Started January 2017, GeekLabs and friends have been building ring-u, an auto-configuring small business phone system. Soft-launch was September 15th, 2017. That's 9 months from "lets do this thing" to hardware and software designed, built and in-stock. It's currently using a couple of "Tier 1" back end telecom providers for core VoIP service delivery.

January 2022: Hello Hub Version 2 released. And rocks! Customers love the OLED display showing network info and system status.

June 2024: New mobile friendly user interface with expanded "softphone", "webphone" and contact management capabilities.

  • #1 rated business phone system on Amazon.
  • Unique automated phone configuration technology
  • All programming done in-house in Chattanooga TN, not outsourced.

In the Works:

GoodPhoneSystem.com
A twist on ring-u.com (a plug and play do-it-yourself focus phone system) with a feature set that IT/Network professionals will enjoy for managing multiple customers with the excellent support team of ring-u available to help them shine. Target launch: August 2024.
VirtScan.Net
An attempt at streamlining scheduling and communications for a growing remote medical technician need. A bespoke mix of external customer facing application and internal critical remote access/control. Target launch: September 2024.
Small Projects:

MELEE: Mail Engine

A simple and powerful mailing list manager. Runs as a user and only requires 1 database table. Full MIME, plain text, PGP Signed and PGP Encrypted receipt and delivery options. Works great with some basic sysadmin skills and a mail server that does IMAP and SMTP. Basic SQL knowledge is useful for setup.

Melee
- a confused mass of people.
"the melee of people that was always thronging the streets"

"MGB" Endpoints

The client calls them MGB's - Mike's Geek Boxes. MGB's enable a remote imaging technician to assist with patient scans on MRI and CAT scanners, including the ability to use physical controls that are typically not remote controllable.
